Jamit is short from Java Access Modifiers Inference Tool and it allows you to infer tighter access modifiers for Java code.

Analyzing bytecode, it can find out if fields or methods may be declared private, default, protected, or final. Engineering software with Jamit can thus help increase hiding and keep interfaces as small as possible.

The most useful application for Jamit is dead code elimination. Jamit can be used to find out which methods and classes are unreachable and automatically eliminate the corresponding code, saving space for binary distributions.

Requirements:
Java 1.5
JDK 1.5

What's New in This Release:
This version supports Java 5.0 (hence the jump in the version number).
In particular, all Java 5.0 attributes are recognized, and annotation classes are marked as live as necessary.
Also, the bytecode engine understands the changes to the instruction set (LDC) that come with Java 5.0.
